A Balada de Tim Bernardes

Today I woke up from a beautiful dream
My grandmother smiling, oh, how long it's been
Grandma, I hadn't hugged you
Your voice in the room, the paintings and the crystals

Because when it came to witchcraft
My grandmother Daria knew the most
About the mysteries of the planet
And the gift of nature to transform

And transforming she moved on to another plane
And one day we'll all go, but until then
Go, my son, find a way
To be here what you dream

And why not sing and why not singing?
La la la la
And why not sing and why not singing?
La la la la

The more time passes
The more I find amusement in this deception
Called growing up
Time is all together, without separation

Without a time signature
Without a point or dash, without a hyphen
Seeking to be present
In this meeting between before and after

And why not sing and why not singing?
La la la la
And why not sing and why not singing?
La la la la

I will return, I will return
I will return to be happy, I want to be calmer
I am taking care of myself

I will dream, I will dream once again
Because if the dream is over
It's not an old dream that will end me

I will change, I have already changed, I am changing
Life is meant to be enjoyed
And somehow I think I am enjoying

If by chance love calls once again
I think I will go, I want to try
I even think I am already trying

And why not sing and why not singing?
La la la la

I'm not sure how I got into this
That I got mumps a second time
Long live my hypochondria, I take every day
A Chinese syrup

I don't know if I'm cautious or worried
I'm addicted to solving functions
To clear everything out of the way
And finally feel peace in my heart

But the more I rush
The point I want to reach moves forward
And I always end up late, with no one by my side
To accompany me

But why not sing and why not singing?
La la la la
And why not sing and why not singing?
La la la la

And I want music in any way
I sing in the shower, on stage or in the subway
The passion of my life
My fantasy, my eternal love

And I want the form and the content
The shell and the profound, the pose and the song
I want it all, I want everything
Oh, how I deceive myself and long live the illusion

And why not sing and why not singing?
La la la la

I will return, I will return
I will return to be happy, I want to be calmer
I am taking care of myself

I will dream, I will dream once again
Because if the dream is over
It's not an old dream that will end me

I will change, I have already changed, I am changing
Life is meant to be enjoyed
And somehow I think I am enjoying

If by chance love calls once again
I think I will go, I want to try
I even think I am already trying

And why not sing and why not singing?
La la la la
